Washington State University is conducting a virtual science fair, complete with a virtual gym, teachers' lounge and ribbons. Each Friday students will "stand" at their exhibits to answer questions. An electronic message board is available for posting comments and questions.
In other years the fair has been devoted to social studies.
USC has just initiated virtual science fairs.
Florida is also sponsoring the Great Online Research Challenge (see also Scavenger Hunts). And the prizes are 4 YEAR SCHOLARSHIPS to FSU. Many regional and international events are beginning to appear on the networks.
Annotation
So far this year 129 student entries from 22 schools nationwide have been exhibited at the Washington state fair. Your classroom's turn is next. Invite parents to the exhibit, too.
